Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of a wave of 'Minneapolis weird' indie cinema that treats the city as its own character, not just generic Midwest.
The 15-minute runtime is intentional—Rhoades wanted the anxiety of a real cigarette break, complete with the desperate need to get back before someone notices you're gone.
